new warrior cars ocs plus a map of their territories! they live on abandoned floating islands! info about individual clans + culture below the cut!
All clan culture: all cats believe in Sunclan, similar to Starclan. instead of the Dark Forest, there is The Sea of Spirits, which is the punishment for bad cats. when a cat dies, their body is taken to a ceremonial site and pushed off of the island. if the cat is good, their soul will gain wings and fly up to Sunclan. if the cat is bad, they will fall to the ocean, and their soul will be forced to wander the surface of the water until they find land, in which their soul will finally find rest.
Islands lore: humans built these islands but died out due to a pandemic a long time ago. the humans remaining on the ground have forgotten the islands, and they remain in legend. the cats and other animals on the islands were left behind, however, and they have taken over the land and have run wild, returning the islands to a wilder state.
there is an island floating around the entire island system, and once it completes a cycle, it dips below the clouds.
the clans use these islands to hunt and are in battle over who gets what mini-island. to travel between islands, there is either bridges left by humans or, more likely, a trail of floating rocks to jump between. many cats have fallen to their death on these, but it is their only chance of hunting for more prey or herbs.
______________________
Rubyclan: they live in rocky mountains near an abandoned mineshaft! before an apprentice can become a warrior, they must enter the mineshaft and return the next day with a gemstone. this stone will be embedded into their skin as a sign of their warriorhood. Rubyclan cats will also gain gemstones through heroic acts or ceremonies.
the mountains are cold, and there is little prey, so Rubyclan mostly hunts in the meadow island nearby. Rubyclan is generally considered the most hostile and also the hardest to fight as they tend to be bulkier due to their climate. they have no direct rivalries, though, as they hate everyone equally.
Rubyclan protag: (top middle cat in the drawing) his name is Pyritepaw! he has anxiety and doesnt think he can live up to his clans expectations of him. hes also scared of getting a gem, so he purposely makes mistakes in his training to avoid his warrior ceremony.
___________________
Orchidclan: they live in a lush rainforest and are the healthiest and generally calmest and most willing to compromise clan. they decorate their fur and nests with flowers. for their warrior ceremony, the new warrior will climb the tallest tree and be surrounded by flowers for their vigil (which happens in the day in this clan). when they return to the ground, they are asked what they learned from this experience, being so close to Sunclan, and the cat is expected to have a unique individual thought that will help the clan in some way.
Orchidclan doesnt really need the other islands as much for territory, and therefore, share both the swamp and city islands with Scarabclan. they do however, still fight with Rubyclan over the herb island.
Orchidclan protag: (bottom right cat in drawing) their name is Jaguarpaw, and they are a mischievous little creature. their favorite thing to hunt is birds and see what the rarest flower they can find is. they have a competition with their medcat sibling to see who can find the most interesting thing in the forest.

BUGS MENTION TW!!!
Scarabclan: they live in a desert, and their camp is in an oasis. they tend to make dens deep in the ground, where the sand is cooler. they have the hardest time finding prey and herbs, and so they've decided to improvise. Scarabclan farms bugs for food and medicine. part of an apprentice's final test is to grow a bug from a larvae and then fight it with other apprentice's bugs. the winner of the battle gets to become a warrior, and the loser has to start over with a new bug. (beyblade battle?)
Scarabclan cats often gain a bond with a bug they became a warrior with and carry them on their pelt while hunting or just generally doing clan things. sometimes, if they have a pet like a tarantula, scorpion, or centipede, the bug can help hunt! medcats are in charge of non-predatory bug colonies and raising, such as roaches and small beetles/grubs. grubs tend to be used for food, and Scarabclan cats are immune to most venoms, using them as medicine instead!
Scarabclan protag: (bottom left) her name is Scorpionpaw! her big companion is a bark scorpion, quite small, but she has faith in her pet! she's scrappy and always looking for adventure, so her and Jaguarpaw get along great! she does have a bit of a mean streak and doesn't quite understand how her words affect others.
